Finally, FG Arraigns Suspected Taraba Kidnap Kingpin, Wadume, Six Others
The federal government yesterday finally arraigned a suspected kidnap kingpin in Taraba State, Hamisu Bala, popularly known as Wadume, before the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court on charges of terrorism.
Attempts by the police to arraign the defendants since February had not been successful owing to the alleged refusal of the military authorities to release other defendants who are military personnel in the 16-count criminal charge. Left out were the suspected military accomplices, led by Captain Tijani Balarabe, attached to the 93 Battalion, Takum, who were accused of freeing Wadume and allegedly killed some members of the police team who had arrested him.
